Techno needs to be more 'musical'.. I mean, there is some crap out there that you can hardly even call music.. No evolving emotion. no rhythm. Its just over distorted noise.

I hate that some techno has become so loopy that to the non-techno ear it sounds like the exact same loop to them over and over again, with no variation. Making a cool 8 bar loop is not a song... but many think that a track is 90% done after the first loop is created. Where is the bloody song structure!

Speaking of the non-techno ear..... The non-techno critic is the best! If its good then you should be able to play it to anyone. IF ITS GOOD.. ITS GOOD

Taking this genre forward is looking outside of techno to learn from whats on the other side.
